Feds move to postpone iPhone hearing

Politico:

Citing new leads about how to access an Apple iPhone used by one of the perpetrators of the San Bernardino terrorist attack, the Justice Department asked Monday to postpone a court hearing set for Tuesday on whether Apple should be forced to help the FBI break into that phone.

Is this the FBI backing down from pressure either inside the government or from Apple’s various lobbying efforts or have they legitimately found a way around it? Either way is troubling.
